This chapter presents an empirical analysis on lane changing behavior using a trajectory data set collected at a weaving section in Grenoble. Simulation is widely used to estimate the capacity of weaving sections. The simulations can be conducted either at a microscopic level or at a macroscopic level. The lane changing probability is expressed as a function of the density, the speed, the weaving flow fraction and the vehicle compositions on the target lane. The simulation‐based model is useful in supporting the geometry design for weaving sections by estimating their necessary length. The mix of traffic, the total observable number of lane changes and the variety in lane changes at this weaving section allow us to have a combination of traffic situations reflecting various mechanisms of occurrence of congestion. The empirical analysis will be useful to develop/improve and validate accurate models to estimate the capacity of weaving section.
